“We have laws in the country but this government is always going the wrong way to get matters resolved which I believe it’s very wrong. The process used in arresting Koku clearly shows that it was politically motivated”, he said on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen Wednesday.
Kofi Adams noted that some irate youth of the NDC who were at the police headquarters were shot by some police officers.
